The whole 'girls fare better on coursework' is bullsh*t! How about 'teachers mark girls easier'?

It was obvious from the get-go that coursework marking was subjective to the teacher whereas exams are anonymous. If it transpired that 'boys fared better in coursework' this would immediately have been flagged as sexist bias and 'something' would have been done.

Another so called bias is that boys are 'falling behind' in education. In the UK the school leaving exam results (A levels) for boys as girls are near parity. Yet this is not reflected in the university admissions. So there is clearly other reasons for why boys don't go to university. Janice's article mentioned some.
